something seems afoot ...

[tedg41] 09/9/2005 10:52

AFXF report of talk of coca-cola deal. If a deal is struck these shoud motor.
Have topped up yet again.
Will we see them at this price again?

[surfer2] 08/9/2005 13:20

some big buyers around ( relatively big )
in blocks of 100,000
unless they were able to sell at 5.2 p and no spread

[surfer2] 06/9/2005 21:45

all i am saying was he had the courtesy to reply
i was enquiring re. news
this was late last yr i think
he could not divulge any details however i took it as a sign of respect given that i am a small holder
i cant say where the share price may go from here but the Glaxo SMithklien contract bodes well , with Via adding Blue Chip Pharma to their list of potential clients
food / beverages and now medicine / drugs ect

there may be an application in lets say pharmacy outlets or automatic controlled dispensation of prescribed drugs after hours if patient has a prescription record ect ??

this is just an example i am putting forward
i do not aim to indicate the co. may go in this direction
i dont know - theres very little coverage of this one at moment
i think a new wave of technology stocks will emerge with real applications
this has potential to be huge if they can break even in near future
hundreds of thousands of vending machines out there
just bored waiting for one of the mags to cover this one....
dyor imo ect ect

I am glad your response from I. O. sounded reasonable as I have big hopes for this small company. It appears to be in as good a shape as could be hoped for, with a couple of large blue chip contracts and the possibility of others. If the fuel conservation and cost saving is marketed with viguor,and a few more positive trial results come in this share price could really motor.

[surfer2] 02/9/2005 19:50

well theres still buyers out there
we do need a director update though
i did get a response from ian orrick once via email , which i found reasonable
all the focus is on oil right now
business model = remote monitoring of vending machines via mobile phone as opposed to driving around in a car , using petrol and switching on and off the engine countless times
new telemetry technologies = efficient use of resources
i hope Vianet can push this angle of the business as its staring people in the face given current economic climate ect

well ok in rural / suburban locations at least....?
true ...despite the recent drop in sp

[cwilliamham] 02/9/2005 10:02

this company needs to give regular updates to the market, as it is so poorly covered by brokers.

[tedg41] 25/8/2005 10:41

Small top-up today at 4.85p. Following the open offer at 5p (cash in bank) I think VIA are good value.

[surfer2] 29/7/2005 17:44

my simplistic reading of this is as follows
someone wanted to sell , due to lowish volume they could only get 4.5p
immediately people stepped in to buy ay 4.85 and 4.95p ( 280,000 shares in buys)
thats according to digital look - its free info but harder to digest than the live level 2 stuff
one can see the trade volumes times ect , and guess whether buy or sells
the offer is at 5p now , so if u fancy following the directors in now is your chance perhaps
thats all i can tell
recent good news - 4 different director buys at 5 p and also recently at 6p and a contract with a blue chip company...so may be worth it 4 a little longr. also check if the price dips below the bollinger band lower level its usually an oversold indication and may bounce again on monday
who knows
dyor imo ect

[exotic] 29/7/2005 14:00

Can't see trades from here, is there anything to cause the fall?

[surfer2] 29/7/2005 13:20

be cool
its to facilitate a few bigger buys at 5p , buys in for 5.5p also i think
spread means the seller could only get 4.5p for his , thats why they were driven down that far at first ...imo..ect
director buys at 5p lately ...

[pimp] 29/7/2005 12:00

well its certainly moving ! Down !

[surfer2] 26/7/2005 20:43

the bollinger bond charts and moving averages are indicating a move in the share price soon i believe , maybe 5-10 days or so

They outsource production. Cranking up should be straightforward.

[surfer2] 12/7/2005 08:52

if they need to crank up production , isnt that the kind of news we are waiting for ?

[cwilliamham] 11/7/2005 23:36

trials with coke and compass must be near completion. If orders do follow , does anyone know how Vianet will be able to handle such a cranking up of its production capacity. It is after all a very small operation.

[surfer2] 11/7/2005 19:26

great potential customer..blue chip pharma
also think merck / pfizer / johnson and johnson ect ect
think ciggie companies too , durex ect ect....
basically any company that sells through vending machines and there you have it
i think its great that the trials are with major names and not some token company
5p was good enough for directors and others springbok
quietly confident on this one

[springbok] 11/7/2005 10:20

Looks like a great buy - I remember wanting to buy into this at 1.25p!

[cwilliamham] 11/7/2005 09:12

Also the mention of potential large orders from ongoing trial with Compass. Good news indeed. As vilink in remote sites is taken up by one or two large companies ,competitors will find it easier to get the capital expenditure budgeted to follow suit. I have also added this morning.

[tedg41] 11/7/2005 09:00

Very good news today re. new order from Glaxo & mention of interest of major Coca Cola distributors. Have added this morning.

[cwilliamham] 01/7/2005 11:55

interims must be due soon.

[surfer2] 27/6/2005 10:45

read the recent news only a week or 2 old
it was a placing , 47 ? i think million shares at 5p each
the price dropped from 5.75p to 5 p to accommodate this interest which so far seems to be very healthy
so far 3 holders accounted for amounting to 33 million shares i think
anyway its all there on their website
mr underwood is a long time supporter of the company and obviously will get a better price than you or me , but one can always follow him in
5p seems to be the bottom now hopefully ,
mr underwood has bought circa 10-12 % of the co in the last year or 18 months at circa 5p and seems to be looking to aquire more and more....

[springbok] 27/6/2005 08:12

No rise after this?:

LONDON (AFX) - Vianet Group PLC said that following the purchase of 13 mln
ordinary shares, Michael Underwood now holds a total of 27,646,758 ordinary
shares representing 15.16 pct.

[surfer2] 26/6/2005 16:00
